Diamond Viper X1600 PRO 512 MB Review

The box this video card comes in is well marked, but there some interesting things to note. First, the black and white “512 MB” on the front of the box is a sticker and not screen printed on the box. Second, on the side of the box it specifies that this card runs on a “PCI-Express X16 or AGP 3.0” slot. Obviously, Diamond has chosen to use the same box for multiple models. While that is sensible from a production cost standpoint, it can also be potentially confusing for customers buying this video card seeing it on the shelf; most notably the information about the interface which is extremely important when choosing a video card. Luckily, smack dab on the front of the box, it does let you know which version this video card is with a PCI-Express label.
